If Rotax has declared that they want to see 5200 as a static RPM are there any thoughts on changing the prop pitch? I'm new to this engine but from what I gather there aren't many people flying this airframe that are getting that kind of static RPM.

Does anyone know the reason that Rotax came out with that #?

Static RPM means the RPM that is achieved with the aircraft stationary on the ground.

Rotax's specification is for 5200 RPM in a full power climb.

There are lots of other threads here in the forum that discuss the subject so I wont go into further detail.
